First time the ESP activated on my Polo

Post by ho8882000 »

This is the first time the ESP activated on my 2019 Polo (1.6 Conceptline) for a few seconds.

The car only moved a little bit to the right hand side, and the move is so small that you almost can't see it in the video.

There is no sights of loosing control at all, the Polo is a very stable car compare to all the Japanese car I drove before. :D

I was driving at 60km/h, but by the time I realize there is a puddle it is too late to brake. :roll:
